Software developer in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Dad to 2 kids.

It’s really interesting to see the different effects that these ADHD drugs have on different people.
I’m a recently diagnosed 49-year-old and I went through test rounds of increasing dosages of both methylphenidate and lisdexamfetamine. I maxed out both dosages and it the effects were so minimal that I couldn’t even tell I had taken anything. I’m not taking anything now., I just manage the best I can with non-medicinal methods.
Less accountability sure seems like it’ll prevent scandals. Because there will be no way to find out that someone in government dropped $5K on hookers and blow…assuming that hookers and drug dealers provide receipts.

What this article didn’t say was that Tod Maffin (the organizer) used to work for the CBC (where the article was written). He was a technology columnist for CBC radio. I actually met him a couple of times when he was on my side of the country (Nova Scotia).
I don’t think this is true because Im not sure Section 31 even counts as Star Trek
Damn it. This is one of my favourite bands. What’s the protocol here, am I still allowed to like them? What if they get a new drummer?
Like the author of that article, I had never heard about Huginn until just now, but when IFTTT went down the shitter for me (around 2018) was about the same time I started using Home Assistant. I found that HA had every one of the service connections available that I used to use through IFTTT, so I naturally just re-implemented all of my flows as automations. HA has only added capabilities since those earlier days. It’s not just for “home” automation.
If you’re interested in more graphical representations of your automations, HA can have NodeRed as a plug-in.
The elephant in the room…
If I could not just migrate to a new instance, but actually convert my existing (self-hosted, single-user) Mastodon instance to a GoToSocial instance, I would do it tomorrow. I don’t want to lose the domain I picked for my Mastodon instance though.
I remember seeing somebody working on a project to convert the Mastodon database to a GTS database, so this may yet happen.
Edit: Found it. It was an issue in the GTS GitHub repo: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/128
I’m no international law expert but I don’t think that follows the Geneva convention.
Exactly my feelings when I heard “Smells Like Teen Spirit” called “classic rock” a few years ago.
Create a docker container without explicitly naming it. Job done.
I…honestly thought I just did that. I want to have an irregularly-shaped zone. I don’t see why they couldn’t logically be grouped, you just aren’t able to do it right now.
Anyway, thanks for reading what I typed.
I am pretty sure I’m not confused. I want to group zones together so they can be used in automation triggers and I can change the group’s membership and not have to change every automation trigger. The group’s state should indicate the number of person entities that were in any zone in the group.
I’m not talking about areas at all.
Just to be clear, I don’t believe grouping zones is currently possible. It’s just a want I have.
Like when you create a zone, it’s a circle. It has a radius. I want a zone that is an arbitrary shape, so I compose it out of several smaller zones. I want to formally make it a single zone in Home Assistant by grouping them. Currently you can’t add zones to groups or create a zone with type: group or anything like that.
This is giving me Punch Out vibes. Little Mac vs King Hippo.
I guess I’ll never know what the kids are saying ever again because there’s no way I’m installing either of those apps.
I wish the web interface let you sort the sub categories both ways. I have a series of subcategories of Year/month that I’m using as a journal and the longer I keep writing, the further have to scroll down :/
I can already do this on my Samsung Galaxy S23. Has this been a Samsung-only thing?
That being said, Samsung’s Bluetooth UI leaves much to be desired, IMO.
Edit: Granted, it doesn’t work exactly as described in the article, but I can have multiple BT speakers playing the same content from my phone.
Yes! I’m useless without coffee :) I feel its effects within 30 minutes or drinking a cup. Neither prescribed drug had the effect that coffee has on me. Maybe old-school caffeine pills are what I should be taking :)
